Hope that's everything. It's late and I'm tired and I probably missed a bunch of stuff. So, to summarize: I look in my closet to see what I can use. If I can't find it there, I go to a thrift store or borrow or make it myself. I try to keep the costs as low as I can because I was doing most of this as a college student or unemployed. I'd also try to improve sections at a time, getting little things done here and there instead of overhauling all at once, which proved more expensive.

I've got one more costume waiting in the wings for Otakon '06, should I go (Goddesses willing!) and I have plans for a few couple costumes, since Phill consented to be dragged attend a convention next year. ^_^!
